| Title of Talk | Starting a Math Colloquium: Experiences from Loras College |
| Abstract | Also presenting: Angela Kohlhass (Loras College). In this talk, the speakers will describe their experiences initiating and maintaining the Loras College half of the Bi-State Mathematics Colloquium. The BSMC is a partnership between the math departments of UW-Platteville and Loras College and is in its second year. The Loras talks provide a venue for Loras math students and faculty to hear from mathematicians in the region surrounding Loras College on a biweekly basis. Topics that will be addressed in this talk include finding speakers, getting students to attend, establishing regional buy-in, and the issues that we have yet to resolve. |
